Prost Wurstgrill & Bierhouse Holds a Sausage Fest

Prost Wurstgrill & Bierhouse had a little shindig yesterday and, what started as a pretty sophisticated evening (a welcome cocktail of sparkling wine and mint was refined and refreshing), turned into a rousing sausage fest.

Of course, when you're a restaurant that specializes in house-made tubular meat products, that kind of behavior is expected. Encouraged, even.

We're being tongue-in-cheek, of course. The real deal is that this Miami version of a traditional German grill and beer house hosted a fete to showcase chef Phil Bryant's sausages, made in-house from all manner of protein and Short Order was invited.

Guests feasted on over a half dozen sausages including duck chorizo; a sweet, delicate chicken; traditional bratwurst; and a cod and potato topped with smoked caviar. Can't decide on which sausage to try? Go whole hog. All sausage platters are $8-12.
